I've not read the book but just watched the first two episodes which took me till the second episode to get into it and must admit it's worth watching and with a great cast as well

1x03 Redemption

Interesting episode were we find out that it was Martha that took Jack's ring but when Prior Philip and William find themselves in a standoff over access to the Shiring quarry i liked the way he resolved the problem oh! and the kings reaction to the statue was great

1x04 Battlefield

Another good episode were Jack gets his first kiss from Aliena and when he saved Prior Philip from the arrow the king ordered him dead my morning but Jack must be the luckiest man alive to survive the strangling

TOP

1x05 Legacy

Another good episode with Tom wanting Jack and Alfred to be friends, but their rivalry over their work lives and Aliena is too intense and Alfred smashing all the statues didn't help. Tom was about to tell Johnathan who he really was until William attacked with tragic consequences

TOP

1x06 Witchcraft

Another interesting episode when Richard returns from war to find no money to support his knighthood and Aliena having to choose between her love for Jack and her oath to her father. Aliena,s marriage to Alfred didn't last long but giving birth to Jack's son in the tragic collapse of the church was nice

That's has been bothering me too and now Aliena has given birth to Jack's son i was hoping the ring would go to him

1x07 New Beginnings

Good episode with the reunion of Aliena - Jack and son Tom and finding out who his father was great but a surprise. The statue was a nice touch and watching William run after a hit on the head was great but wasn't sorry to see him kill his mother

TOP

1x08 The Work Of Angels

Great finale episode with Aliena and Jack arguing about Richard and her marriage to Alfred. Elizabeth leaving William and helping Aliena was nice but Alfred being setup by Waleran to framing Jack was interesting and finally finding out that Waleran killed the lost Prince
